Tuna Patties

 

I originally made these tuna patties for tuna burgers many years ago and now we often enjoy them over a bed of greens, tossed with a vinaigrette. Both ways are delicious and economical as well.

Tuna Patties

20 mini patties or 6 regular

INGREDIENTS

•  3 (170 gram) can tuna, drained

•  1 large egg

•  2 Cups Panko

• ½ Cup green onions, chopped

• ⅔ Cup mayonnaise

• Salt and pepper to taste

• 4 Tablespoons olive oil, for frying

INSTRUCTIONS

• In a mixing bowl, add the drained tuna and flake with a fork. Mix in the egg, bread crumbs, green onions, and mayonnaise. salt and pepper. Stir until well-combined. Divide mixture into 20 mini patties. 

• Heat a non-stick skillet over medium high heat. Add a couple tablespoons of olive oil to the pan. Add half of the tuna patties to the hot pan. Cook on each side for approximately 3-5 minutes per side until they are all nicely golden brown. While cooking the second batch keep the first batch warm in the oven. Add more olive oil to the pan and cook the second batch. 

• Serve the tuna on a bed of mixed greens, tossed with a vinaigrette or you can make tuna sliders. I have also made large patties and made tuna burgers.
